It's not the US that I'm personally most worried about, though we must do better internally. It's nations with vaccination rates that make even heavily anti-vaxxer regions of the US look good. Almost all of Africa is in incredibly bad shape. There are a couple of African countries that have broken 50%, but it is common to have rates below 10%. Its third largest country, The Democratic Republic of The Congo, has 100 million people and a 0.2% vaccination rate. The world must do better in helping Africa get vaccinated, both to stop variants and to end the erosion of Africa's hard won progress in recent years.
